The Historic Carnivals of Piceno
6 minutos
Launched in 2024 with the support of Bim Tronto through the Mete Picene brand, the Historic Carnivals of Piceno project invites you to immerse yourself in the centuries-old traditions of four of the region’s most fascinating carnival celebrations.
From the Carnevale di Pito, Pozza e Umito in Acquasanta Terme to the Carnevale in Ascoli Piceno, including those of Castignano and Offida, each festival is a journey through history, culture, and local traditions. Every year, these events attract tourists from all over Italy and the world, offering a unique opportunity to experience the true essence of Piceno.
Though each of the four celebrations is unique, they all share an electrifying atmosphere where the barrier between masked performers and spectators disappears, forging a deep connection between visitors, locals, and the land itself. It’s more than just a spectacle—it’s a full immersion into tradition, a boundless celebration where Piceno reveals itself in an entirely new and unforgettable way.
